Dan its what I have been saying all along. I cant see how anyone in there
right
mind could say the ARRL is trying to help Ham Radio.


Dan/Bruce:

The ARRL is obviously trying to help itself with their new proposal. I'm
convinced that it is their belief that the new proposal serves two

critical
objectives:

1.) It gives away enough operating privileges to the know-nothing,

do-nothing,
lazy, no-coder whiners to make them happy,

and, by keeping the 5 WPM code test for Extra,

2.) It hopefully won't offend the likes of the withered, feeble,

FISTS-member
geezers who are daily trashing the CW subbands with their numbers games
and their sloppy, indecipherable sending with mal-adjusted bugs.

Don't expect the "Gang of Fifteen" to be very willing to listen to any of

the
membership for adjustments to the proposal, particularly the notion of
increasing the Extra-class code speed to 12, 13, or 20 WPM.

73 de Larry, K3LT


I don't think the gang of fifteen to listen to a damn thing. That is
obvious by their recent proposal.

Even the local two meter, no code techs don't like it.

And the ARRL claims to be a voice for ham radio? Its not the ham radio I
knew and loved. I don't know what it is anymore.
